Where I live here in Texas I do not have a store that doubles coupons and
recently our meat market closed due to the economy…so I have really had to watch sale
prices and save money where I can.
So for the 4th of July my local grocery store had large briskets on sale for
$1.98/pound while the ground beef was $2.99/pound or higher.
Since we are just a family of 4, don’t cook a large brisket very often,
and use ground beef in A LOT of different dinners here
is what I did:
My store has a meat department where they
were able to grind up the brisket and
separate it into about 1 pound packages. So by buying the brisket and having
it ground I saved about $1.00 a pound.
Just wanted to share because I was not aware that this could be done!
I do that too, especially when my local store has Sirloin Tip on sale for 1.99, I have the whole thing ground into ground sirloin. Also have whole porkloins ground into ground pork and make me some sausage!
What grocery store in wisconsin did that? I’m in Milwaukee.
Nevermind..I just saw the person said they were from texas. lmbo.
